Hi there, I am relatively new to geocaching aswell but have placed a few caches now. I found that if you follow the guidlines and put as much information as possible in the reviewer notes when you enable your cache it should flow easily. I use my smartphone for placing caches without any problems. I tend to take the coordinates and walk away a fair distance and then come back and see how close the coordinates are. I may do this a few times in different directions, I have had to average out my coordinates a few times to get the final coordinates. Admittingly I do also have a gps that I then double check the coordinates with, but I have not had to change them yet. As for placing a few close together, there is no problem with that as long as they are within all the guidelines. I have 5 caches in an area of scrub near by, 4 of them are part of a series I have. So maybe make them in to a series or you can do a multi-cache using the different locations as waypoints. Goodluck with it.
